I just heard about this worthy project on Indieagogo that provides a community workshop for kids to learn how to fix bikes and also earn their way to getting a new bike. This kind of community project is very valuable and a great example that lots of communities could replicate. As with Kickstarter they offer various incentives to people to help fund their project including the T-Shirt above, you can also buy bikes, sticker packs and other goodies. Check out the video, it’s a great story.
The Dude Abides, as do we all. Found this little gem via Design Milk and Society6. They also have prints and a pretty cool laptop skin. It’s got some classic lines on it:
“calmer than you are”
“hey, this is a private residence”
“you human paraquat”
“obviously you’re not a golfer”
Tshirt woot’s “The Cake is a Liar”
A couple of years ago I wrote about some t-shirts related to Valve’s amazing FPP (first person puzzle) game Portal and am now downloading the game for free on my mac. To celebrate this I thought I’d create another portal related post. I have not been able to play Portal 2 as i sold my xbox and have yet to replace it so I won’t be playing that for a while.
I love this story about someone designing a custom portal level to propose to his fiance, very rad.
Here’s the previos post Weighted Companion Cube t-shirts (BTW I still own the hoodie)
Glad the Alice Waters post was picked up, she does such great work.
Tcritic is a pioneering t-shirt blog which helped kickstart the popularity of these types of blogs. It’s appropriate then that this week Tcritic brings us a post about another pioneer. Alice Waters founded a restaurant called Chez Panisse over 40 years ago. The cool thing is that this restaurant was one of the first ones on the scene of the local food movement. Their focus is on sustainability and they’re releasing a line of t-shirts called the edible schoolyard project to bring attention to the cause.

It helps me be less depressed at the state of the blog right now, I feel like the design and ads are really letting it down right now. Hoping to change that soon, and I’m aslo going to be adding a submission page to make it easier for designers to subit their own work, the email thing has never really worked well 
I’m playing with a new submission tool at the 100PostBlog which is an experiment in collaborative publishing. If you have discovered or created something please feel free to submit ideas.
A great new concept from Amorphia Apparel called Monsters Of Grok, a selection of great thinkers in the style of great rock bands, a must have for all geeks I particularly like the Tesla/Edison in the style of AC/DC, genius.
Love this T-Shirt from theYetee.com and if you want it for $11 you have 42 hours from now.
Alice Waters founded a wonderful restaurant in Berkley CA called Chez Panisse 40+ years ago and was a pioneer in the slow and local food movement. To celebrate this anniversary and support Alice’s Edible Schoolyard project they are launching a selection of limited edition t-shirts in collaboration with several writers and artists including David Byrne, Maira Kalman, Dave Eggers, and Sofia Coppola. Another cute innovation is the tags contain organic seeds and can be planted yourself A lovely idea.
I really love the cause and the designs are great as well:
Here’s a video about the Edible Schoolyard project:

Love this Steam Wars shirt from the people at Lolcats, finally they seem to be spreading their wings and producing designs that are not necessarily to do with LOLcats. This shirt is avalable for $15 for the next 3 days, which provides a little more notice that many of the 24 hour t-shirt deals from shirt.woot and the like.
Also, a blast from the past, check out the increasingly inaccurately named Top Ten Star Wars t-shirt list from 2007
A cool combination of graphic tee shirt by LIFE IN YOU WAY between the sharp-eyes old man with the words taken from Matthew 10: 08
Heal the sick, raise the dead, clease lepers, cast out demon
Love the style of this shirt from Concrete Rocket. Red looks pretty sweet and innocent right here from her pose and her freckled cheeks but I think the hooded eyes and the bloody contents of her basket tell a different story. Lovely juxtaposition.
The Earth is getting warmer. And I think in recent years that phenomenon has prompted researchers to investigate what effect rising temperatures are having on cold-loving animals like penguins and other wildlife species.
I could only hope that someone migth invented the world’s refrigerator that can contain all southern hemisphere residents including penguins. If that’s the case, I couldn’t be wrong for having this Threadless tee shirt, “The New Beginning”
